I have the urge to add one more fish.
My tank is a 35g hex with about 40lbs of LR. I have an oct 100 skimmer, emp280 bio filter. I'm using crushed coral, not sand, so sand sifters are out. Also about 12 various snails and a hermit. Plenty of places to hide in the live rock, about 8 smaill softie coral frags under current USA pc 2x65 lights. I've got some good looking corraline popping up on the rocks, water perams are good, good flow.
All my fish have been in for about 4 months.
School of 3 chromis
Singapore angel
tomato clown
what can I add that has a good chance of fitting in with this setup to complete this system?

Well, you might want to be a bit more specific.. But yes they def. Stick together most of the time. The two stronger ones tend to bully the weaker one, but not horribly. The clown will bully them, especially at feeding time.

I love mine! He's constantly grazing on the LR or hides in his cave.

Well, he's in his new home! Out of the bag, he went straight down, so I have no idea where hes hiding in the rock. Theres lots of places I can't see, so I hope hes okay and gets comfy cause I plan to have him a while..

Well hes in, found a few hiding places for himself, and ate a bunch of mysis shrimp. Seems healthy!

Pics with the not so flattering blackberry camara..

Update
RIP to this poor bleeny. After a healthy and active couple of months, I found him dead at the sudden with the large hermit you see in the last pic on top of him.
I believe the blenny was resting on the bottom as he normally did and the hermit got him.

I dont want to hijack (sp) your thread, but i see you have a singapore angel in your reef. I have wanted a cool looking angel for my reef for a long time. i was wondering if it bothers your corals. I have hard and soft corals, i wonder if one would be ok in my tank.

heh I suppose I hijacked my own thread by posting those pics months ago.
It does pick at the softies and zoas in te tank on occasion, like most angels will.
